My Everyday Favorite ‘Neutral’ Lipsticks

‘Lipstick’ is the one thing in my entire makeup collection that I tend to have most fun with. I love wearing lipsticks and I love exploring new brands and different lip shades. As much as I love my bright and bold lipstick colors, I still find myself gravitate more towards those lipstick shades which look natural on me for everyday use.

In today’s blogpost, I am sharing my 7 favorite lipstick shades that are always in rotation when it comes to my everyday makeup look. For me as an everyday makeup look, ‘subtle brown smokey eyes’ with a ‘neutral lip’ is my go to thing. And the shades I am sharing on the blog today are the ones that I find perfect for daily wear. 3 out of these 7 are from Mac cosmetics and 4 are from other renowned brands. Want to know which ones? Keep reading 🙂

Note: Before adding the lipstick swatches, I’ve shared a picture of me without any lipstick, so that you can get a better idea of each lipstick shade on my skin knowing the natural color of my lip!

No Lipstick

Mac Cosmetics: Velvet Teddy

Velvet Teddy by Mac Cosmetics, is a great lip for everyday wear. Velvet Teddy is described as ‘deep-tone beige’ with a matte finish. This is how this shade looks on me:

NARS Power Matte Lip Pigment: American Woman

American Woman is a liquid lipstick and it is a ‘medium, rosy mauve’ shade with neutral undertone and a matte finish. The texture of this liquid lipstick is very thin. I love this shade as its so near to my natural lip color.

Mac Cosmetics: Twig

Twig is a warm toned, ‘medium mauve’ shade with a satin finish. It is a very flattering lipstick color and it looks beautiful on a wide range of skin tones.

Mac Cosmetics: Taupe

MAC Taupe is described as a ‘muted reddish-taupe brown’ shade. It is a very sophisticated color. It is an excellent shade for office goers. Easy to pull off. It looks medium brown on my skin tone as you can see in the picture.

Too Faced: Sell Out

Sell Out is such a pretty neutral shade, as you can see. The formula of this liquid lipstick feels very light on the lips. This shade is described as a ‘matte soft pinky-brown’.

Makeup Forever Artist Nude Creme Liquid Lipstick: Touch

This liquid lipstick has a mousse like consistency, texture wise. The shade I’m wearing here is #08 and the shade name is ‘Touch’. This is an extremely pigmented and opaque lipstick with a creamy, satin finish.

Kat Von D Everlasting Liquid Lipstick:Lolita II

This liquid lipstick shade is my another one of the most favorite shades which is described as a ‘terracotta nude’. It’s a muted, medium rosy coral with warm undertones and an ultra matte finish.

So, these were some of the lipsticks that I enjoy wearing on everyday basis. What about you? What are some of your everyday favorite lipstick shades? Will wait to hear from you… Don’t forget to share 🙂
